What that...an explosion. Here? This cannot be happening. How could this be happening? Explosions? This is unreal. Was that from a movie or television show? Explosions are not something that I experience in my life, Emmet thinks frantically, panicking. Irregardless of my previous experiences, that was likely an explosion. Was it hopefully an accident, an accidental detonation from something within the mall? No, I am unaware of any device in the vicinity of this shopping mall that could be used to create an explosion of that magnitude. Still, something must have caused the noise and shockwave that I experienced, Emmet reasons.If this explosion was not an accident, then that means it was planned by some human agency. Discounting an unexpected military strike by a neighboring country, that narrows the likely possibilities to a terrorist action aimed at this shopping center or someone within it, or... That is a train of though that I had not considered; this explosion might be accidental in nature, caused by one of Elites here at the mall. Alternatively, it could be a malicious attack by an Elite entirely unconnected to the school.In any case, staying in this mall becomes very dangerous. However, evacuation presents the problem of controlling proximity to Manjit. By vacating these premises, we would endanger many others. Moreover, since Manjit would be as shocked by the explosion as I am, she may be losing control over her own abilities, increasing the likelihood of casualties should we attempt to leave in the midst of this panic.Emmet catches his footing from the explosion, eyes wide. "I am unharmed, and that was an explosion. Manjit, I think that with the panic, you may want to lock yourself into a restroom or the backroom here, to avoid accidental injury," Emmet explains. "I think we need to figure out what is currently happening," he adds, pressing the activation switch on his metallic wristband.Emmet activates his force field, obviously.</blockquote>
